Today I'm going to show you how I turned these super cute Clique Kits papers and cutouts into bookends for our travel-themed guest room. Here's what you'll need to create your own:
Supplies:
Scissors
Cardboard or a Pre-Made Box
You'll also need something heavy to put inside — I used rocks that my husband has been collecting on our travels.
Apr 24, 2013 - Cute set of globe bookends, in great vintage shape! Perfect for an office or for a little touch of vintage in any room! Measurements: 6L 4W 6H We are more than happy to ship worldwide, please convo us if you dont see your country listed below. Invisible Bookends. There are a ton of different ways of getting your books to stay in place. Keep your books and magazine organize with this quirky and adorable bookends. Designed with black rubber stoppers at the base that prevent scratching furniture and table tops, as well as sliding around. This item comes shipped in one carton. Suitable for indoor use only. This is a 2-piece set of decorative bookends.
Step 1: Make a Box
To put together your bookends, start by making an open box out of thick cardboard (I cut up an old delivery box). I left tabs on each edge, to make it easy to glue the sides together. I used Multi XL Liquid Glue because I needed a strong bond between the pieces of cardboard.
Step 2: Decorate the Box

Next, cover the box in your cute scrapbooking paper. For this step I used Mono Dots Adhesive because it rolls on smoothly and won't buckle or warp your paper. Once I'd covered the box I added embellishments and stickers on each side, then filled it with the rock mementos we'd collected on our travels.

I'm already planning other projects I can use my Clique Kits on. Next I'm going to create a cute travel-themed border for some travel pics I want to frame. What projects would you use these cute papers and embellishments on? Share your ideas in the comments.
